I buy my butter in four-pound packages from Costco because, well, I adore butter, and also because that's the cheapest butter in town. But I rarely use the butter within a week or so, when it's freshest. Finally my husband asked me, "can't you freeze butter?" and I recalled that yes, you can freeze butter.
What's more, butter just removed from the freezer tastes ultra-fresh on sourdough toast or hot-from-the-oven biscuits (made with more butter)... yum. It's so fantastic that I can't believe I ever let my butter slowly become stale in the fridge when that freezer was just waiting to save that fresh-from-the-farm flavor for me. Of course, I wouldn't recommend actually eating it in buttersicle format...

I freeze my butter from Sam's too. I also freeze their chocolate cookies because they come in huge portions :).
